Description

Using a timeline turns scattered historical facts into a clear visual story. Students can track civilizations, compare eras, and watch history unfold from week to week. It is the perfect tool for memory retention, review, and long-term understanding!

Every homeschooler can benefit from having a timeline. As students add timeline figures and book covers from historical reads, they strengthen what they learn each day and create a scrapbook of homeschool memories to look back on for years to come! I still have the timeline my youngest son and I created years ago even though he’s grown now! Every time I flip through it, I’m reminded of the history books we read side by side and the lessons that sparked conversations, curiosity, and connection. 💕

When we were homeschooling, I searched for a timeline that was simple, inexpensive, and easy to grow with, but nothing was a perfect fit. That’s why I created this one! Inside you’ll find clean, uncluttered pages, customizable templates, and extra inserts for when history gets exciting and space runs out. It’s designed to grow with your child year after year.

What you get:

• You’ll receive a 103-page timeline. You are not only getting a printable timeline! You are also getting interactive pages and templates that let you add images, type in your own notes, and build timeline figures and pages that reflect your unique learning!
  
  
• The timeline comes in BCE/CE and B.C./A.D. editions. You get both and can choose which format you’d like to use.

You can print out the entire thing or sections of the timeline that are needed for a specific study. We recommend you print your timeline onto cardstock so that it will last for years!

The wide inner margins are perfect for hole punching or any other type of binding!

There is also a second blank timeline template that features the following achievement categories:

★ History & Politics

★ Literature & Theater

★ Religion & Philosophy

★ Visual Arts & Music

★ Science & Technology

★ Daily Life

You can use these pages to highlight specific time periods and place them wherever you wish! This second template also has interactive PDF fields, so students have the option to type in information. 

Bonus!

We know that many sets of timeline figures may not have every person or event you want to include. That’s why we’ve made it so you can easily add any timeline figures you want! Two templates are included that help you custom create your own timeline figures that look great!

• The first template can be printed out so you can draw your own figures in the squares.
• The 2nd template is totally amazing! It’s interactive, so you can paste images saved from almost any source directly into the squares to create your own professional-looking custom timeline figures! This way you aren’t limited to the set we’ve created. It’s easy, fun, and quick!
  This also allows you to add book covers to your timeline, turning it into a special keepsake of your homeschool and preserving memories of the historical fiction and nonfiction books your student has read.

How to use the interactive template:

1. Save the images you want to use onto your computer or device. We recommend putting them all in a file on your desktop to easily find them.
2. Click on the image icon in the center of the box and choose the image you want to insert for each box (the example picture is our granddaughter, lol), and then press OK:
3. Type in the text you want to use right below.
4. Print!

We think this is one of the most customizable and affordable homeschool timelines you’ll find!
